Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease for which immunogenetic susceptibility factors have been defined. In a recent case control study, it was shown that a prior intimate relationship with pet cats or budgerigars confers risk for subsequent development of RA after a period of latency. Pets are a potential reservoir for putative microbial agents that could be a stimulus for...
